- Do you find the appearance of a minifig with no hat, hair, or helmet to be unsettling?
- Do you find your minifigs to be incomplete without something covering that top stud?
- When veiwing the creations of others, do you find the appearance of a minifig with an exposed stud on its head an indication of a poor builder?
If you answered yes to any of the above questions, then you are a
peladofigphobiac. You may wonder, what is a peladofigphobiac? Observe...
peladophobia- fear of bald people
fig- contraction of the term minifigure for the AFOL, a yummy treat to the
muggles
peladofigphobia- fear (or loathing) of minifigs with an exposed stud on
thier head.
My name is Felix Greco, and I’m a
peladofigphobiac.

I used to and I still do if its a yellow fig head (or #shudder# pink head)
However when the fig is clearly wearing headcoverings due to the printing
such as this little fellah  then its all ok

Eek, but then you can see inside his head to where his brains should
be! While bald solid-studded minifig heads are bad enough, those poor
souls who lost their brains through the holes in the tops of their heads
are pitiable.

No, they’re not brainless, they’re hippies.
Although it’s true that they have no noses
from which to
scoop the brains out...
What concerns me is the significance of the
solid-stud heads. Are these older figs
all Amida Buddhas? Or
have they visited the “corrective phrenologist”?
